✦ Synopsis

A multigrid convergence acceleration technique has been developed for solving both the Navier-Stokes and turbulence transport equations. For turbulence closure a low-Reynolds-number q-o turbulence model is employed. To enable convergence, the stiff non-linear turbulent source terms have to be treated in a special way. Further modifications to standard multigrid methods are necessary for the resolution of shock waves in supersonic flows. An implicit LU algorithm is used for numerical time integration. Several ramped duct test cases are presented to demonstrate the improvements in performance of the numerical scheme. Cases with strong shock waves and separation are included. It is shown to be very effective to treat fluid and turbulence equations with the multigrid method. A comparison with experimental data demonstrates the accuracy of the q-o turbulence closure for the simulation of supersonic flows.

In the present work the multigrid strategy is applied to second-order EN0 schemes for the computation of steady compressible flows. The performances of the algorithm are analysed in many flow situations, ranging from low subsonic to high supersonic flows, for both internal and external problems. Thr

## Abstract A design of varying step size approach both in time span and spatial coordinate systems to achieve fast convergence is demonstrated in this study. This method is based on the concept of minimization of residuals by the Bi‐CGSTAB algorithm, so that the convergence can be enforced by vary
